The Broward County Property Appraiser's Office will organize a series of community outreach events in July throughout Broward, including two in Coral Springs.

The first event in Coral Springs will be held from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on July 8 at the Northwest Regional Library, 3151 University Drive in Coral Springs. The second one will be held from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at Sartory Hall, 10000 NW 29th St. in Coral Springs.

Deputy Appraisers will be available to assist with homestead, senior and other property tax exemption applications, as well as answer questions on property taxes. Applications for portability will be accepted too. All outreach events are open to the public.

Documents required to file a homestead exemption include a current Florida driver's license or Florida identification card, and a current voter registration card or declaration of domicile. Non-US citizens must also provide proof of permanent residency.

Qualified residents 65 years of age or older as of Jan. 1, 2009 can apply for additional senior exemption. Eligible seniors must have a total household adjusted gross income not to exceed $25,873. Documents required for senior exemption include a 2008 income tax return or, if one does not file income taxes, a copy of the 2008 Social Security 1099 Form.
